I am confused about what you are trying to do with all those INDEX/MATCH... Also, your IFERRORs seems to be in the wrong place if you are imbedding it it should look like:

=IFERROR(FORMULA, IFERROR(FORMULA, IFERROR(...)))

Or something similar to that.

I want to populate the buyer name which is depending on an item which is spread all across 5 different sheet and if have the buyer name then populate the name, if not found just leave the column blank. Can you help to suggest the correct way to do it?

This would be the proper syntax:

=IFERROR(IFERROR(IFERROR(IFERROR(INDEX({Buyer2}, MATCH(Combine@row, {Combine2}, 0)), INDEX({Buyer3}, MATCH(Combine@row, {Combine3}, 0))), INDEX({Buyer4}, MATCH(Combine@row, {Combine4}, 0))), INDEX({Buyer5}, MATCH(Combine@row, {Combine5}, 0))), "")
